Limited Submissions

Please check back frequently. We will post opportunities when they become known.

Limited Submissions are grant opportunities that restrict the number of applications from qualified institutions. In these cases, UTHealth will post opportunities on this page as they become available and specify the requirements needed to launch an internal competition to select the university's applicant(s).

Kevin A. Morano, PhD, Senior Vice President, will establish ad hoc internal review committees as needed based upon the nature of the RFA and the pre-applications received. 

If an investigator identifies a limited opportunity that is not posted on this page, he or she should contact Limited Submissions via email to express interest. Please include the following information in the email: 1) Program name or RFA#, 2) Primary PI submitting, and 3) Proposal title.

Opportunities are considered first-come, first-served if the sponsor deadline is less than two months away. If the deadline is more than two months away, the proposal will be evaluated for internal review.
